    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    Henceforth, rather than calling him "Cignot guy", I will call him Joe, until/unless I hear differently.

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    That screws into the top cap of the tank. It's where the chimney goes through the top cap. I wasn't even aware it was a seperate piece, until I noticed it was loose when I was cleaning it up. I have a new wick in there now -- as much cotton as I could get through the coil. It's almost OK. So, I...

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    Seems this is a place where there could be an air leak. But I couldn't find any appropriate o-rings at my local hardware store. Nor at Amazon. Need to find a place that sells thin o-rings. Also, Cignot advised that it'd be better with the tank more full, as that would have more "vacuum" in...

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    I'm pretty sure I've dropped everything I have, except the Kayfun. :D No, no seal problems, exept one place where the guy at Cignot says no, isn't supposed to be an o-ring there, but I might stick one there anyway, if for no other reason, to keep it from unscrewing. I'll try to remember to take...

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    I think it comes down to the juice channels being too deep. But I don't have another to compare to. Have to get over to Cignot's Denver store today and see what they say.

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    Thanks for the offer, PM on the way. I'm not all that bothered by the channels -- I can polish that out. I do have 14-day warranty, so Sat. is my drop-dead date. Glad I bought this locally. Hate to have to return something though. Well, I suppose I can head over to Cignot and have them look at...

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    I would think there are some objective criterion by which I could establish that. Mechanical drawings, for example. What diameter should the juice channels be?

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    I use a mech. K100, hoping to get something better, maybe an ELA from SuperT, at some point. I like a somewhat tight draw, and I've already opened up the airflow on the Kayfun as much as I can tolerate. My normal vape right now is a Mini Vivi-Nova at 1.8. I rebuild those, but there are issues...

    Super Duper Kayfun Lite Plus v2 Here Now - Three Different Setups Letting You Have it Your Way!

    Do you know the size of the juice channels? If they're smaller than the Russian 91%, I might have to order one. The Russian is about 1.25mm deep, along the threads. Hard to be exact, cuz the depth probe on my caliper is too wide to fit in there. I think need one that delivers less juice, and...

    Website Problem

    Java and JavaScript aren't the same thing. I wholly agree with disabling Java. I generally have JavaScript disabled as well, but there are various sites where it isn't possible to use them unless JavaScript is working.

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    At the bottom of the threads, below the coil deck, i.e. at the very bottom of the tank. The ID of the machined cove there is 11mm. I wonder whether the inherent design is just not right for me. The amount of juice coming into the coil chamber is dependent on lowered air pressure during the...

    Website Problem

    Trying to do too much with Javascript, instead of plain HTML, is my guess. (And one of my pet peeves :) )

    Nope, no air leak.

    Website Problem

    Just tried to use your website. Haven't been on for a while cuz I get long-lasting items from you. Wasn't able to use the site. Have this error: I'm running Linux, the Seamonkey browser -- this should be identical to Firefox, under the hood -- just a different front end.

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    Little update: Tried it with 2mm Ekowool wick, same coil. Ugh, wet and nasty. Juice channels in the threaded area are about 1.25mm deep.

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    Nice drawing. I want to try some Ekowool, and that looks like the ticket. Probably back to playing with this on Saturday or Sunday.

    It Looked Like a Nova Head -- 1st Impression

    One of my DIY coils on the Nova is about pooped out. Still at 1.8. Quite a bit of gunk on it -- only 2 coils visible. I think I'll toss it now, though it's still working mostly OK.

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    I did notice the burrs. Nothing here to compare it to for channel depth. Got it from a reputable vendor, so I assume it's a real Russian, rather than a counterfeit (counterfeit clone ... uh :facepalm:). I've thought I might stuff some wick in the channels too, as something to try. And no, I...

    Kayfun (clone) questions

    Here's a couple. I can't speak to how good they are. I see these things used in lots of videos. If nothing else, a stable base seems to be a good thing to have when building. I'll probably make my own build platform -- I have a bag full of 510 and eGo connectors. SMOKtech Omnitester-...

    Kayfun Lite Flooding - Russian 91%

    Heh. Out of the box, it came with one broken one. Fortunately, it was on the clear insert, so I could replace it with one from the stainless insert. Yeah, that's another item for my hardware store list -- just forgot today. I'm sorely tempted to put some red rouge, or diamond paste, on all the...
